Hello and welcome to CASEing the Catty – Sunday Blog Hop

Whether you’re joining the Hop here at CreativeJax with Jackie Noble, or if you’ve hopped on over from the talented Judy May – a BIG hello! You’re in for a treat of projects – the crew are CASEing our favourite projects from the Stampin’ Up! Occasions Catalogue. This catalogue finishes next week – along with the 2016/2017 Annual Catalogue. So – if there’s anything on the retiring list that you wish – you are rapidly running out of time – so hop on over to my online store before it’s too late!

 

It’s a hard ask to identify my favourite project from the Occasions Catalogue but I managed to choose one – a card that hard leapt out at me when I first saw the catalogue but hadn’t got around to making. It’s the comic strip card on page 49.

 

And I’ve used one of the new Hostess Stamp sets in the 2017/2018 Annual Catalogue which goes live next Thursday – 1st June.

 

The “In the City” set is full of images of buildings, vehicles and nature – both outline images and stamps to be used for colouring. The possibilities are endless. There are great sentiments too! In fact – there are 60 stamps in this set! WOW! 

 

 

In the City will be available to purchase with Stampin’ Rewards of $34 value. 

 

I’ve made a wedding card in the new  2017-2019 “In Colors” which will be available for two years from next week. 

 

 

The top panel has blocks of Berry Burst and Tranquil Tide.

The middle panel has blocks of Fresh Fig and Lemon Lime Twist. The bottom panel is Powder Pink. Love how these colours work so well together.

In the close-up below you can see the limousines and the chapel have been popped up on dimensionals and I’ve stamped the outline images inside the card too.

The card base is anoth new product – Thick Very Vanilla cardstock! Yes that’s right! Thick Very Vanilla! Just like the Thick Whisper White – it is thick enough to make a sturdy card base!

 

I’m loving getting to play with new products and I was delighted to be able to hold two Catalogue Launch Parties this weekend to introduce the new Catalogue to some of my local customers. What fun! More on those events in a later post.

 

Stampin’ Up! is running a fabulous Hostess promotion for the month of June – extra Stampin’ Rewards for qualifying parties! If you’d like to hold a Stampin’ Up! Party aka workshop with me I have some spaces available for June. Contact me.
